Beautiful old double story Carousel in Avignon, France in the main Square.  We were there just as it was getting dark and this was lit up beautifully.  I can't find much information on it, but it is probably late 19th Century.

The Drawbridge and entrance to the Fortress of Carcassonne. Signs of settlement as early as 3600BC has been found, but the fortress was built in the 1130.  It is no a World Heritage Site.  The fortress was considered impregnable and never conquered.  We wandered around for a few hours then drove to Montpellier.

Taken while walking down an alley-way in Vaisons La Romaine, France. An absolutely beautiful town with an ancient old village on the hill. Would have loved to have spent a day or two there instead of the few hours we had. The first image is the original. The second image has a textured overlay - please let me know which image you prefer.

This was taken by the side of the Notre Dame on the day of the final of the Rugby World Cup between New Zealand and France. After visiting the Cathedral we went on to watch the rugby in a small pub. The woman walking ahead of me in the image is my daughter.
